Zhang Yu's words activated the mechanism of Dao and destroyed Guan Chaosheng, but his mind was still immersed in the lofty land. At that moment, he felt as if he was in harmony with Dao, as if he hated that he could not throw himself into it.
This feeling was somewhat similar to when he saw the mysterious appearance of the Clear Sky Qi. He immediately realized that he couldn't immerse himself in this place. Otherwise, it was very likely that he would sink into this place and never wake up again.
He slowly retracted his mind, and his consciousness returned to the present world.
At that moment, he could not help but think that every time he used this remarkable ability in the future, he might have to go through this test. If he could not hold on, he might sink into it.
However, there was no need for him to worry about it. He still had to use it when he needed to. When fighting against a great enemy, the most important thing was to face the enemy head-on. Once he killed the enemy, he could then consider other things. At least he had something to consider. Those who were defeated did not even have the right to consider.
Furthermore, he had a feeling that the lofty land might be very important to his cultivation. He could not abandon it. Even if he cultivated normally, he should think of ways to go there to comprehend it.
However, when he was in the lofty land, he could somehow feel that the attack just now might not be completely successful. This was because he felt that even though the divine Qi and physical body that Guan Chaosheng displayed outside were all destroyed, there seemed to be a strand of divine Qi that was entrusted to a place that could not be touched.
He believed that this strand of divine Qi was separated from the person's body and was deeply embedded in the Tao-Guarding Treasure. That was why it could not be touched from a distance.
Perhaps it was because of this that Guan Chaosheng did not choose to retreat. Regardless of whether he retreated or not, the result would be the same. If he could withstand it, he could continue to maintain the passageway between the two worlds. If he could not, he would just have to start all over again.
However, since the divine Qi had formed a certain connection with his body and was not implicated, it would not be easy for him to return immediately.
He looked at the door that had shrunk to its original size. He reached out and grabbed it. The sword was already in his hand, and the light in his heart surged again.
Yan Ruohan's figure appeared beside him. Seeing the bright light on his body and the direction he was looking in, she asked cautiously, "Zhang Shouzheng, are you planning to kill your way to the other side of the passageway?"
Zhang Yu said, "I do have such intentions. Guan Chaosheng might have entrusted some of his divine aura to the Refined Space Realm and Yang Realm, so he might not be completely dead. He might need a very long time to return, but why would I let such a thing happen? Rather than passively defending here, why don't we just charge in? "
Yan Ruohan thought about it and admitted that what he said made sense. She couldn't help but admire his courage. She thought about it and said, "It's just that the situation on the other side is unclear. They might still have some tricks up their sleeves."
Zhang Yu: "Since this person can come, then I can go too."
Yan Ruohan couldn't help but nod. She sighed. If it wasn't for the fact that she needed to listen to Xuanting's orders, she would be willing to attack the other side together. This would also move the battlefield from their own side to the other side's hinterland.
Although Zhang Yu had this idea, it was a general plan. When it came to the actual battle, he was very cautious and wouldn't act rashly.
This wasn't a battlefield for him alone. He had to consider the big picture.
Moreover, if he charged into the other side, it was mainly to pressure the other side. This was a tactical choice. He didn't really think that he could break through the Dao Guarding Treasure and exterminate the two sects by himself.
Therefore, after thinking about it carefully, he used Xuntian Dao Zhang to send a suggestion to Xuanting.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement from Xuntian Dao Zhang. However, the voice of the head Daoist could be heard. "Zhang Shouzheng."
Zhang Yu's expression changed slightly. "Head Daoist?"
The head Daoist said, "I already know about Guan Chaosheng. However, this person is no longer a threat for the time being. The matter on the other side of the void is not the top priority now. Zhang Shouzheng, stay in the formation for a while. There are more important things for you to do later."
After a pause, he said slowly, "Zhang Shouzheng, you are not only yourself, but also Xuanting Shouzheng. You protect Tianxia. Tianxia should also protect you. Some things don't need to be shouldered by you. You have done very well."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "I understand."
The Daoist at the head of the table retreated.
Yan Ruohan seemed to be listening to something. After a while, she said, "Zhang Shouzheng, Xuanting has summoned me. I will leave for a while."
Zhang Yu said, "Be careful, Fellow Daoist Yan."
Yan Ruohan cupped her fists, and a beam of golden light descended from the sky. As the light faded away, she disappeared as well.
Zhang Yu looked at the opposite side. He spread his sleeves and sat down. He said to the people in the formation, "Fellow Daoists, follow me and try to push the power of the formation towards the passage between the two worlds."
Even if he did not go to the passage, he still had to pretend to be attacking. That way, he could suppress the other side. If he did not move, the other side might try to come back.
After the battle just now, his prestige had been completely established. Even Xuan Zun, who came later, respected him from the bottom of his heart.
When they heard his order, they responded in unison. Together, they urged the Clear Sky Qi to spread towards the passage between the two worlds.
On the other side of the void, the old Daoist with disheveled hair sat silently on the rainbow. Guan Chaosheng's defeat could be said to have destroyed the upper echelons of Huanyang school.
However, he was hesitant. The battle had already reached this stage. Could it still continue?
Unconsciously, he thought of retreating.
He knew that even if he retreated now, Tianxia might not let them go. However, if he retreated, he could at least buy some time. Because no one knew when Tianxia would come back. If he was lucky enough to go to the upper echelons, then he could be free.
While he was thinking, a Daoist figure floated over. He bowed to him and said, "Greetings, Lord Li."
The old Daoist with disheveled hair nodded and said, "Elder Shusun, what's the matter?"
Daoist Shusun said, "Lord Li, what do you think of the upcoming battle?"
The old Daoist with disheveled hair said, "What's your sect's plan?"
Daoist Shusun said, "The elders of Huanyang school discussed and felt that we can't retreat. We can still suppress Tianxia here. If we retreat, Tianxia can put all his power into Shangchen. We will lose the opportunity to enter the world."
The old Daoist with disheveled hair said, "At this point, do you still think we can enter the world? “
Daoist Shusun said, "Why not? Our two sects have more than fifty Xuan Zun and two Dao-Guarding Treasures. If we can join forces with Shangchen, can't we hold up the world? "
The old Daoist with disheveled hair looked at him and suddenly said, "Can Fellow Daoist Guan come back?"
Daoist Shusun didn't answer.
Seeing his reaction, the old Daoist with disheveled hair knew that this person must have a way to come back. But how and how long he could come back was another matter.
In fact, even if this person could come back, he wouldn't be of much use if he couldn't participate in the battle.
He glanced out of the passageway. "Now, it's not up to us to continue. It's just that Daoist Zhang doesn't seem to be willing to let us go. That formation is extending towards us. Perhaps he wants to attack us. Even Fellow Daoist Guan was defeated by him. This old Daoist may not be his match."
Daoist Shusun said, "Our two sects have two Dao-Guarding Treasures. If he comes, we'll show him our power. Why should we be afraid?"
The old Daoist with disheveled hair didn't think so. Although the Dao-Guarding Treasures were good, it depended on who was using them. Without Guan Chaosheng, how much power could the remaining Sky Refining and Yang Tribulation cultivators use?
As for himself, he didn't want to fight with others.
Daoist Shusun said in a low voice, "Venerable Li, don't forget that the alliance between our two sects came from Huanyang school and your sect's Grandmaster."
The old Daoist with disheveled hair said lightly, "I know." However, he understood that the Grandmaster's words could be ignored. After all, they were the ones who fell into the world, not the Grandmaster. According to the priority, protecting the sect was the most important thing.
Daoist Shusun heard him and thought that he agreed to continue resisting. He didn't say anything else. He cupped his hands and left.
In Shangchen, as a golden light fell, Yan Ruohan appeared in the formation.
At the moment, the battle between the two sides hadn't been decided yet. It didn't seem to be much different from before. That was because it hadn't been long since she left.
She closed her eyes and felt for a while. She saw that the world had gradually calmed down. There were only some residual waves, but there weren't many obstacles.
To be safe, she waited for a while and calculated silently. Then, she raised her hand and gently pushed forward. This time, the falling momentum was still toward Gu Yangzi.
Almost at the same time, Gu Yangzi sensed it. He felt helpless. Just now, he tried his best to transfer a wisp of vitality to Huanyang school, but it didn't work. He couldn't see the situation in the void during the battle, but he couldn't sense it by calculating the fate. The situation was very bad.
Now, Shangchen was undoubtedly at the most dangerous time. If they didn't deal with it properly, they would lose. It could be said that they couldn't make any mistakes.
At this time, he couldn't retreat.
Fortunately, he had a backup plan. The Green Spirit Leaf that had fallen from the branch just now had not truly fallen. At this moment, it was still suspended in the air, and at this moment, it was just enough to serve as a shield for him.
With a thought, the green leaf fell. Chen Tingzhi calmly stepped back, letting him do as he pleased.
Seeing him like this, Gu Yangzi seemed to think of something. He sighed slightly and raised his hand. The whole leaf turned into a dense green light, protecting him. At the same time, branches grew from the sky and wrapped around him, forming a second layer of protection.
Almost as soon as he finished doing all this, the collision arrived. The dense green light instantly shattered, and the force continued to press inward. However, just like before, the force was transmitted by the branches to where the Heavenly Branch was and was endured by the Dao Stabilizing Treasure.
Yan Ruohan saw that she still couldn't take down this person, but she didn't care. She stood there without moving, but a golden light fell. Then, she came inside the Thousand Luminaries Great Formation again. She said to Zhang Yu, "Zhang Shouzheng, leave this to me."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly. He looked up and saw an oval shadow. With a flash of golden light, he had already left the formation.
